Research方向概述
Dr. Goffredi’s research interests concern beneficial symbiotic partnerships between bacteria and invertebrates. Most of her career has so far been devoted to the study of beneficial associations between bacteria and deep-sea invertebrates,including marine polychaetes (Riftia and Osedax), 蛤蜊(Calyptogena), 螃蟹(雪人蟹Kiwa), 和水蛭. 在过去的几年里, she has begun to explore tropical insects which provide many promising new avenues for research with regard to bacterial involvement in their nutritional ecology. Dr. Goffredi was the recipient of the 2014 Linda and Tod White Teaching Prize
Dr. Goffredi’s funding has come from the National Science Foundation, and she has published in journals such as Frontiers in Microbiology, 环境微生物学与科学. 她的B.S. 她在大学攻读生物/海洋科学专业. 她是圣地亚哥大学的博士.D. is in Ecology, Evolution, and Marine 医学杂志ogy from UC Santa Barbara.
Courses
普通动物学(Bio115).
An introduction to the diversity, comparative anatomy, physiology, and ecology of 动物. 重点放在分类学上, 适应环境, and the evolutionary relationships between animal phyla. Together we build an understanding of animal life on this planet. Students learn to appreciate specific features in animal architecture, trends in the evolution of body design that are shared among animal groups, 和动物多样性的一般制作. Students gain the knowledge and curiosity to recognize that different 动物 are adapted to different circumstances with unique capabilities.
微生物多样性(Bio325).
介绍微生物的世界, 包括病毒, 古生菌, 和细菌, and their role in shaping and sustaining life on Earth. 重点将放在结构上, 新陈代谢, physiological and biochemical adaptations to unusual environments, 系统发育分析, 生物技术, 微生物生态学和生物相互作用, 包括植物和动物的共生. Students will develop an appreciation for the ubiquity and necessity of microbes and will no longer consider experiences with disease as solely significant. 而, students will be able to discuss the ways in which microbes, through their enormous metabolic and genetic diversity, 让我们的星球适合居住. 在实验室里, students will consider and examine microbial growth and function and will select familiar environments from which to investigate microbial life.
微生物共生(Bio350).
Symbioses are intimate associations involving two or more species. Symbiotic associations are widespread in nature and we can expect to find them in every type of ecological niche. This course will cover the diversity of symbiotic interactions that exist between both microbes and fungi and various eukaryotic hosts, 包括植物, 动物, 和原生生物, 以及其他微生物. 主题将从分子到生态, including the specific molecular communication between partners, 不寻常寄主结构的演化, novel physiological and biochemical capabilities, and the unique ecological advantages that many symbioses confer. 这门Courses也包括写作, 展示, and reviewing of published work on various symbioses.
